Here is an example, let's say I open a message in the Messages app and I want to reply to a text. I double tap on the edit field and Voiceover says: Message, text field is editing, iMessage, characters, insertion mode at start So I'm now in editing mode, Voiceover tells me it's an iMessage and I know my rotor is set to characters and I'm at the start of the field which of course is empty at first. Let's say I want to start with "Hello", so now I type an "H", here is what I hear: Message, text field is editing, H, characters, insertion mode at end. Then I type the next letter, the "e" in Hello and I hear Message, text field is editing, He, characters, insertion mode at end.

Even if I accidently type a wrong letter, it will repeat it all when I press the delete key, for example, if I had typed an "r" instead of the "e" in Hello it would say: Message, text field is editing, Hr, characters, insertion mode at end. If I then press delete to get rid of the r it would repeat but again only saying H and as you can see this is very annoying. I had initially asked Richard if he had noticed anything like that, but since I did also not read anything on Applevis about it and apparently nobody elese has the problem, it seems to be unique to me.

Hello all, part of what these messages may be speaking to and I could be wrong is that I think maybe they’re expecting people to be using Bluetooth keyboards and or braille keyboards. And I think that’s a lot to assume. The beauty of the device is to be able to not have to have other things hooked up to it and for it to be portable. That’s what it means for me at any rate. So when the swiping ability deteriorates it’s quite a loss.

Cristóbal, Misery loves company; thanks for yours, I've experienced the same grievous issues. And yes, I will voice my concerns to apple plagiarizing a little from what you offered here. I also experience issues with cursor skipping around along with occasional "machine gun" clicking almost like the Voice over cursor is having a heavy duty battle with whatever methods are used to highlight the screen for sightlings. In the app store, the swiping will skip past the next item and a backward swipe, then forward again hits the desired spot; it's a damn lot of scraping and grinding such as I described also in settings. I can't get to the "clear forms" item neither from swiping back to that control or forward to it. I'll bet that a blind person using chop sticks to gather up peas on a plate is less challenging than some of the behaviours of IO 14.01. I've never experienced such a mess since I started with Iphone in 2012. On 2020-09-25 11:59 a.m., Cristóbal Muñoz wrote: I have this exact same problem on my XR. Still present in iOS 14.0.1.

I'll caution others from doing that because when Apple Accessibility had me reset my settings in connection with an issue I was reporting, not only did doing so not affect the issue but all of my custom settings were reset to factory defaults. This was such an inconvenience that I attempted to get my settings back by restoring an iTunes encrypted backup which failed and hung requiring me to restore my iPhone SE 2020 to brand new factory defaults. Fortunately, after doing this, I was able to restore my iTunes encrypted backup but I spent about 12 hours on Saturday messing with the phone.

Re: How I solved most of my voiceover iOS 14 problem how I solved most of my voiceover iOS 3 team problems
Hi Sieghard, I'm not going to argue that resetting one's settings after a full reset can't be done but the amount of time involved will be a function of one's memory or documentation of custom settings which I suspect few have. I believe I had reset most of mine accept for the background wallpaper color which was reset to what appeared to be an orange color. I could not figure out how to get the sea green color I previously had back. The bigger issue is identifying the benefit of resetting all your settings. I know James said it resolved most of his issues but it certainly didn't resolve the one I reported to Apple Accessibility. And I can't say I was noticing any difference in responsiveness of my SE 2020 after the reset so the cost of the reset in my case was a lot greater than any benefit received.
